Previously, RC Factory focused on producing Day-Date and Submariner models. Today, I want to introduce another replica Rolecks from them. This time, it is one of the hottest replica watches of 2025, the Rolecks Daytona 126518LN with a turquoise dial.
This Daytona was highly sought after when no replicas were available on the market. Because of the strong demand, several factories later released their own versions, including THB and BT. Now, almost all major factories produce this model. However, each factory has subtle differences, which often leaves buyers unsure about which version to choose.
In reality, there is no need to worry too much. Thanks to major improvements in watchmaking technology, these replicas are already very well made. This is especially true for the Daytona, as top factories now use the best super clone movement available, the DD4131.
The RC Factory Daytona is an increased-weight version. Its weight is approximately 160 grams. I personally measured it at 159.3 grams. The genuine watch is made from solid 18K yellow gold, so there is still a noticeable weight difference between the replica and the original.
Among replicas, weight and gold tone can vary between factories. On the RC Factory version, the gold color is not overly yellow. The BT Factory Daytona has a very similar gold tone. In my opinion, the Daytona from RC and BT is a better choice compared to versions from other manufacturers.
For the turquoise Daytona from RC Factory, it is also possible to add a layer of real 18K yellow gold coating to the case. This process is not cheap and the final cost depends on the current gold price.
The dial color is one of the hardest parts to replicate. However, unless you have a genuine watch to compare side by side, it is extremely difficult to notice any difference in the dial color on this replica.
